And that is not even close to the USSR or Venezuela. When people talk about California like its a communist hellscape they just expose their ignorance. I mean, don't get me wrong... its on the wrong path but it's no where near real communist.

To quote an old Ronald Reagan joke.

One Russian communist asked the other Russian, have we reached full communism yet?
He answered, Oh no, it will get much worse.
